Since the demise of Sunrise (RIP), I've switched around a few but not yet found one that sticks.

I agree.

Julian Yaman · Answer

The simple design and functionality are the reasons why I use Google Calendar.

Answer

I'm obsessed with Timepage. I admit, I originally got it because I'm a Moleskine brand loyalist and I just jumped on the bandwagon, but I actually turned out to LOVE it. It's just a really brilliantly designed app that keeps getting better with each new update. Color coded / shaded bubbles let you know how busy you are any given day and it's easy to swipe between monthly, weekly, and daily, views to get an accurate and clear view of your schedule.

I love this app because of nice UI and well thought UX. It permanently lives in my menu bar, so the calendar is always a click away!

Came across this one randomly a while back.  A bunch of useful views and the "dashboard" view has date, weather, calendar, reminders, and a list of recent and upcoming birthdays if you're into that sort of thing. Also, a *ton* of customizations available in the Settings menu.

Google Calendar works between & among devices (iPhone or Android phone, Laptop, Apple Watch) and has arguably become the industry standard, which provides for beneficial network effect for users.

Not to mention there are TONS of other productivity tools (eg. Wunderlist, Slack, Typeform) that integrate w/ Gmail through IFTTT or Zapier.

You can also seemlessly add events to your Google calendar from date/time details within an email in Gmail. Plus, for meeting invitations, you can link to a Google Hangouts video call right there within the event.
